NAME Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite Near Infrared Spectrometer 1
TYPE Spectrometer
DESCRIPTION The Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS) Near Infrared Spectrometer 1 (NSP1), or nadir NSP, was one of two NSPs with identical electronics units but different fore-optics systems and view directions. NSP1 was designed to take NIR emission reflectance spectrometry of the vapor plume and ejecta cloud resulting from the Centaur impact, measure the grain properties, and measure broad water features.
